Wedding Last Weekend!!!

I shot second at an amazing wedding with a very good friend, Kevin Keelan! We had a blast shooting the wedding and we both got some amazing shots! I am actually planning to blow a few of these up.

The wedding took place here in central Florida. We shot hair & make-up all the way to the exit at the reception. Please let me know what you think of the photos! Oh yeah, all of these were shot with second lighting...god, I love second light!!!

Home from Disney...

Well I just home a couple of hours ago from a resort in Disney and man was I tired. I took a little nap with my daughter who was so tuckered out from the weekend. She really loved "It's a Small World" and keeps singing it.

Top 5 Photographers...

Okay, so last night I was sitting with a fellow photographer and we were discussing who was our idols in wedding photography. To be honest, I had never really thought of this but there are so many people out there that are amazing and deserve the credit.

I know my opinion really doesn't mean squat but either way, here is my list.

David Beckstead - http://www.davidbeckstead.com/
David Jay - http://www.davidjay.com/
Bebb Studios - http://www.tyingtheknot.net/
Ed Pingol - http://www.edpingol.blogspot.com
Kevin Keelan - http://www.kevinkeelan.com

These are in no particular order, they are all amazing photographers.

On a different subject, I took some time off from the blog and the site to manage some stuff with the business but everything is where I want it so I plan to update the site and blog often. This weekend I am headed out to Walt Disney World here in Orlando, FL. It is my first weekend off from shooting in a long time so the family and I are staying at a resort and we plan to hit Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom.

Check back later.

Long time....no posts!

So, it has been a couple of weeks since I have posted. I told myself that I would not neglect my blog but I have been so busy. I recently shot two weddings, both outdoors, one on the beach and the other on a lake. I will post some shots up of those weddings in the coming days and I have another wedding this weekend.

I decided to try and play with some functions on my camera and I am liking the results. Here is a picture of my beautiful wife that I took during testing...it turned out so well, I figured that I would post it.

Is tomorrow D-Day?!?!

Okay, so I am not usually one to believe rumors but for some reason there is one rumor that I am afraid I believe and I will know for sure tomorrow whether I fell for just another rumor or not.

The Canon 5D has been out for a few years now with no replacement, this is weird because camera companies, including Canon, put new bodies out every 18 months on consumer models and 36 months for pro models. Since the 5D is considered a pro body, it is due for a replacement.

I found this link not too long ago and I have read so many people talking about whether it is true or not. Last year there was a log of talk about a Canon 7D or the other name for the same product was 5D Mark II. I believed it was going to be named Canon 5D Mark II but now I am thinking that Canon 7D will be the name as I seen a post on a forum about a UPC code for the Canon EOS 7D.

Here is something interesting that I discovered today. Now, this was not found on any forum, this is just my crazy head playing with numbers. The release date is April 22nd, the date of availability is June 2. Now follow this...

4/22/08 = 16
6/02/08 = 16
_____________

They are the same...weird.


1 + 6 = 7 (7D?)

_____________

Another coincidence? We will know tomorrow.

Update: it is now after midnight so officially it is the 22nd of April here on the east coast of the US. No sign of the 5D yet...I think it is a huge hoax!
